I was just thinking Sam was conning and marrying several men by the time she was 25, so by nature she might be the problem.  For the life of me I can't remember any substantial Danny/Jason scenes at all, so I guess the entire parenting narrative on Jason is open.  I think we are gearing up for Danny to be a problem child for Jason/Sam and it would help if I could even recall what Danny looks like.

I've only seen the clips on Twitter thus far but this latest one is definitely a teenager. It's still crazy to me how old he and Rocco are.

I only read recaps but, Danny was brought home by a cop friend of Dante's for underage drinking, which led to Sam fearing that he was like Jason who was an adrenaline junkie who was drawn to danger which is what led to his death.

That sounds like Sam not Jason

Ha! Ha! I forgot Rocco even existed.  If the show just decided to recast both with 20 year old bland hunks I would absolutely not know the difference.

Same. 

Love on Valentine's Day. So Josh Swickard goes shirtless, but Brook Lynn keeps on her mumu.

This crap is not on Josh.

So, I actually agree it seems to be an Amanda Setton problem, but the show allows it.  I have some issues with her and KS as well.  I think in 2024 it's a slippery slope with women in this industry and their beliefs, feelings, comfortability, etc.   These women aren't actively endangering their co-stars with their issues like SBu and IR were with the vax.  It's just a notable aesthetic issue.  Do I think AS is in the right industry if she's completely unwilling to show skin?  No, absolutely not.  But the backlash for firing her or Kirsten would be too much because they really aren't doing anything wrong if the show is fine with it.

I understand your point about firing AS ans KS.

Still, contracts expire, and GH doesn't have to renew them. If they can dump SB and IR (for admittedly worse violations), they can get rid of actors who no longer represent the character.

Besides, I always thought a show could release an actor after any 13-week period even though the actor was tied to the show for the contract length.

I would never call Jason a great or present parent (despite the brief whitewash job they attempted on him with Jake, where Hudson West's Jake had a deep bond with Billy Miller's Drew-as-Jason). But the shadow of Jason Morgan does loom very large over PC. The kid could easily have picked up on the local legend. Me, I would chalk it up to being about that and about the aspects of Sam herself that she's not necessarily coming to terms with.

But didn’t Hudson West‘s Jake was more raised by Franco?

You could.  I think you could easily write them off, but I think the optics and possibly lawsuits aren't worth it.   Personally, I would ditch Maxie and send her on a long vacation/break with Spinelli and recast AS.  AS was kind of a get though, but she hasn't really impressed me ever the way she did in other roles.

It certainly doesn't sound like pre-brain injury Jason.

I'm more interested in Josh taking his shirt off than Brook Lynn removing her mumu.😂

And I don't really care either way.  They're both boring as hell to me.  But, then again, so is much of GH these days.

She's called "Chaste Lynn" for a reason lol!

Spoiler

Tomorrow, Krissy tells Allie that she told Molly that she told Blaze about her being a surrogate for Molly & TJ & that she's pregnant! 

How's that for a soapy sentence?!

Too easy. Not a bad set-up line. Oh, hell, why not. This is a case of premature digits on keyboard. Or shorter premature keyboarditis. 

On the left is a random Jason image.  On the right is Jake from Nov. 6, 2023  after Anna inadvertently shot Charlotte.
Seemed like they were setting up Jake as a reflection of Jason.

(except that Jake actually showed emotion)
